Ubicloud
PostgreSQL

Managed PostgreSQL that costs 3x less. Open and portable to any cloud.

Ubicloud Managed PostgreSQL on Hetzner

01. Open source

PostgreSQL itself has been open and portable since its inception. But managing PostgreSQL on the cloud is complex, and has been the domain of closed-source solutions —up until now

Ubicloud PostgreSQL makes it easy to manage PostgreSQL,in a consistent way, on any cloud provider. That means you can see each step of how we operate, be free of cloud vendor lock-in, and get the benefits of PostgreSQL operations in your own environment (you can also contribute to the underlying project, which we always welcome)

02. Costs 3x less

Pricing starts at $65 / month for Ubicloud managed PostgreSQL:

standard-2 instance:

2 vCPUS
8 GB RAM
128 GB of disk space

This is less than 3X compared to AWS RDS PostgreSQL instances that cost more than $200/month

Pricing is simple and predictable, scaling linearly from <standard-2> to <standard-16> instances. There are no added fees based on network, storage, or I/O. You pay one fee for the minutes you use, billed in minutely increments
